  2. Advice on stock photography workshops/books/etc?

    Paul, a good source for stock photography news and links is www.stockphotographer.info.

    Shen-Hao 8x10 FCL810-A

    Kerry, I'm just reporting what the web site says, without any editorializing.

    But you're correct, it doesn't look like black walnut to me either. It could very well be Woodiness Sncheider, but I...

    It's known as "Schneider-itis." It happens to Schneider lenses frequently. Actually, it happens to most lenses eventually. The interior coatings start to break down with age.
